Have you ever been to Globalfest? Holy hot chocolate and fried green tomatoes. It's pretty amazing. I've seen some great fireworks in my time, even seen a lot of them when participating in the glory of the 4th of July in the US of A. But this. With the music and the synchronization. The Chinese music and the announcer that went on and on. The singing and the kumbaiya (how do you spell that)....anyway. Cheese and macaroni it was great. Why haven't I gone before? It's been in the city for a few years. I lived in the city. Chastisement for me.This year, which is new I'm told, there were tents for different countries. Cultural items, food, dance productions and vacation offers. I entered the free trip to Mexico. I've already packed my suitcase. Just need to know what time to be at the airport.
So with all the many food varieties of the world available...the lusciousness of every corner of this fine green planet...the many delicate colors that make up our tapestry of life....I had kettle corn.... AND juice.
Two thumbs up....Globalfest.
We've actually taken the kids three times to see them....had some free tickets. So sad we had to miss them this year. They truly ARE awesome, eh? Glad you got to see them for yourself. No one can really know what it's like until they've been there. Super fun!
ReplyDeleteI've never been, but I'm a nerd about this stuff - LOVE it. I love getting a taste of other cultures (literally and figuratively!)
